Abstract: A series of 50 cases of Endometrial Carcinomas seen over a three year period is reviewed. The majority are EndometriodCarcinomas which constitutes 44 (88%) cases. Among the Endometriod Carcinomas villoglandular differentiation commonest constitutes about 39 (82% ) of cases followed by squamous differentiation (14%) of cases and secretory types.A Modified histologic classification, the theories ofhistogenisis and the clinical biologicbehaviour are presented and discussed. Histological grading was done, and followed cap protocol where ever necessary.

Keywords: Endometrial Carcinoma, Morphologic features.

Abstract: Background and Objectives: Determination of handedness is important in unidentified bodies. Drainage of Superior sagittal sinus (SSS) to one of the transverse sinuses is well documented. The present study is an attempt to find out any correlation between handedness and pattern of drainage of superior sagittal sinus. Materials and Methods: In this study 100 cranial cavities from postmortem cases were utilised to assess the type of drainage of SSS and correlated with handedness. Handedness of cadaver was known through relatives. Results: It was observed that amongst 97 right handed and 3 left handed subjects, four types of drainage...........

Abstract: Dominant follicle size were studied at the time of ovulation by tow diffeternt method of ultrasound i.e. Transabdominal and transabdominal route on 81 female patients. These patients were referred by infertility clinic and were normal and having stimulated cycles. Patients respond excellently to TVS, there were initial hesitancy which removed by adequate counseling. Detection rate of follicle less than 10 mm were good on TVS while no difference were observed on more than 20 mm. Ultrasonographically the Ovary is defined as mix echogenic structure having well defined cortex peripherally and central medulla. Follicle arranged at periphery as oval shape anechoic area of varying size representing the various stages of follicles.

Abstract: Aim: the aim of this study was to describe a technique of fabrication of two implants supported mandibular overdenture. Background: There are several treatment modalities for completely edentulous patients including conventional complete dentures, implants supported overdentures and implant supported fixed prosthesis. Patients with a severely resorbed mandible often experience problems with their conventional complete dentures. Treatment concepts involving implant supported overdentures have proven to be as satisfactory as implant supported fixed prosthesis with added advantage of ease in hygiene maintenance and less cost. Case description: This clinical report summarizes a simplified and accurate method of fabricating a two implant supported mandibular overdenture......

Abstract: This prospective hospital-based study was conducted on 153 women with excessive menstrual bleeding. Those with pre-menarchal or post-menopausal per vaginal bleeding were excluded. After eliciting a detailed history, all patients underwent clinical examination and investigations including trans-abdominal ultrasonography. Pelvic examination was restricted to married patients. If indicated, dilatation and curettage or hysterectomy was done and histopathological reports were obtained for confirmation of diagnosis. The mean age of married (n=121) and unmarried patients (n=32) was 36.59±5.99 years (95% CI: 35.53-37.66 years) and 18.32±2.51 years (95% CI: 17.45-19.19 years), respectively..........

Abstract: Objectives: Cardiovascular disease (CVDs) is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. There are no words to emphasize the role of primary prevention in pathogenesis of CVDs. The role of exercise in reducing the incidence or decreasing the severity of CVDs is undeniable. The sole purpose of this study is to explore and compare the changes in physiology in individuals performing yoga, with aid of certain parameters (BMI, Pulse Rate, Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure, HDL, Cholesterol, triglyceride) and who knows that with an extensive study we might discover yoga as a potential key that can alter the Natural Course of the CVDs.........

Abstract: Cigarette smoking has been known to be the main cause of Airway diseases particularly Obstructive ones. The extent of airflow limitation depends on the number of cigarettes smoked and the duration of smoking. If intervened early, it may be reversible; however in most of the cases it becomes symptomatic only in later stages when there is significant decline in FEV1.

Abstract: This main aim of the study is to assess the effects of cancer caregiver's demographics on Quality Of Life (QOL) and Strain Burden (SB) and there inter-relation on overall wellbeing of cancer care givers. Cancer is the most common condition followed by Dementia, Alzheimer's disease associated with care giving. As cancer treatment progresses, the number of caregivers (CG) is likely to increase. Methods: This is a prospective observational study, carried out at St. Ann's cancer and general hospital, and Sai Shree Hospital ,Telangana, India involving 120 caregivers of patients undergoing cancer treatment irrespective of type of cancer. The CG Quality of Life-Cancer Scale (CQOLC) and the Modified CG Strain Index (CSI) were used to assess QOL and SB of CG respectively. Appropriate statistical tests were used to assess interrelation of QOL and SB...........

Abstract: Pleomorphic sarcoma of breast is a rare entity. Here we present a case of 27 year old female who came with complaints of swelling in Right breast since 2 months. Initial clinical, FNAC and mammography suggested a BIRADS GRADE 3 -4 with provisional diagnosis as Phyllodes tumor with atypical cells. Excision of lump with wide margin is done and sent for Histopathological examination. After extensive sampling and with the help of immunohistochemistry markers the diagnosis of high-grade pleomorphic sarcoma with margins positive was made. Modified radical mastectomy was done, no lymph node infiltration and margins are clear. Post op uneventful and patient is kept on regular follow-up..

Abstract: Indirect pulp treatment (IPT) is a conservative and minimally invasive procedure, advocated more than 200 years ago. The study was done to assess the success rate of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate disinfecting solution (CHX) with calcium hydroxide (Dycal) and with resin modified glass ionomer liner (RMGIC) in IPT of primary molars. 60 primary molar teeth in children between the age 3 to 10 years were selected. Carious lesion approaching the pulp was removed followed by a dentin excavator to remove the caries at a site of "risk for pulp exposure". Teeth were then randomly assigned into two groups. Group 1 with CHX and dycal and Group 2 with CHX and RMGIC consists of 30 primary teeth in each............

Abstract: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder of lipoprotein metabolism resulting in elevated serum low – density lipoprotein cholesterol leading to increased risk for premature cardiovascular disease (CVD). The diagnosis of this condition is based on clinical features, family history, altered lipids profiles and aided more recently by genetic testing. As the cardiovascular disease burden is dependent on the degree and duration of exposure to raised LDL- Cholesterol levels, early diagnosis, and initiation of treatment is essential. This review aims to highlight the screening, diagnosis...........

Abstract: Severe atrophy of the inferior alveolar process and underlying basal bone often results in problems with a lower denture. These problems include insufficient retention of the lower denture, intolerance to loading by the mucosa, pain, difficulties with eating and speech, loss of soft-tissue support, and altered facial ppearance. These problems are a challenge for the prosthodontist and surgeon. In this case report, patient with resorbed edentulous mandible was successfully rehabilitated using two dental implants placed in the interforaminal region with ball abutments opposing conventional maxillary complete denture.
